UNCOVERED: James Blake's hit song rips off pre-existing song. Should we hold it against him?

James Blake has a hit song called "The Wilhelm Scream." He recently received a 9.0 from the popular music website Pitchfork Media [link], and he is widely known as 'The Prince of Dubstep.' However, it seems like there is a blemish on his 9.0 trophy after he admitted that he 'ripped off' the song from a song called "Where to Turn" by James Litherland. I wonder if James Litherland has a Google Alert setup for James Blake's name, and is waiting to drop a 'big ass lawsuit' after his first week album sales numbers come back.

As he’s hinted at over the last few weeks, the melody of ‘The Wilhelm Scream’ is borrowed from something his father produced, the James Litherland track ‘Where to Turn’. “This is the track that spurred on The Wilhelm Scream” he explained “It was a track that I grew up listening to because my dad was producing it. It was going around the house for weeks. It became a song for me as well so I think it’s time people heard the original”

Can u hear the direct similarities? Did James Blake 'straight up jack' this song?

"I would expect this kind of ripping off from a chillwaver, but not from some1 getting so much high level buzz."
